Sirius Black

Love him and I so cried when he died, although I have read so many theories of him not actually being completely dead because of the way he 'died'

I hope he will make a return in one way or another

I love Sirius and it was horrible when he died!

I think he is gone for good though, as sad as it is.

I'm hoping that we will see him in another pensieve memory...it would be great to see more of the Marauder's time from Jo herself!

Let's talk about his life....

He was a very brave man who was very dedicated to his friends. He would do anything for anyone he loved, even if it casued him a trip to Azkaban or disgrace. He never cared what anybody else thought (except maybe James) and would stick up for his friends. He was very passionated. Even when it came to hating people (ex. Snape) Very talented

Although he was very quick to judge and acted and reacted badly and without thinking a lot which is one of the reasons he ended up in Azkaban.

Yea, but I think that just shows how much he cares about people. If he thinks somebody would hurt his friends, he will hurt them back.

I think Sirius was very reckless in his life.

For example, when he told Snape about Remus being in the Whomping Willow. I doubt if that was a 'conscious' decision, probably something very spur of the moment.

Yes, I dont think he would ever intentionally try to kill someone because he didnt like them (ie snape). He is just irratiional and lets his emotions rule him

Yes, he really jumps to conclusions and is really quick to act with out thinking things out first

Going back to the pensieve that ducky mentioned. You are probably right that that is where we will see Sirius, though I still hope to see him alive lol

What do you think will be the role of sirius in the last book, either by pensieve or otherwise?

Pensive wise.. I think he knows alot, and he's done alot. He can show Harry many things that noone could now that dumbledore's gone

I do not beleive he is alive

Hmm...that's a difficult question.

Perhaps he will just be there 'spiritually' to give Harry strength (I put spiritually in quotes because I don't actually think he will be there...just the thoughts of him).

But what would be so important in the memories that will help harry?

Just perhaps to see that his parents and godparents were happy, before the war started and ruined everyone's lives.

That might give him strength to carry on fighting for a life where he could be happy and carefree.

Yea, that would play with Harry's ability to love.. He cares so much that he wants to make avengence for HJames and Sirius

That is very true. Harry runs on emotions so the simple thing of even seeing sirius again, even via memory, will spur him on and help him remember what he needs to do and what he is fightning for

Sirius is Harrys real inspiration along with his parents. He loves him more than remus and definitly wormtail, more than Hagrid and even Dumbledore, they had a real connection even though they only knew each other for a short time

He's Harry's second father. He loves, Siruis! He is the only person kind of related to him that gets him, unlike the Dursleys!

yea, he really was Harrys father, i mean Harry loved James and everything but he never really new him.

I was so sad when he died he was the closest person to Harry than any other person in the book.I hated it when he died.

i personally dont think he's dead myself i think he'll return one way or another and personally I think that gary oldman was a wonderful choice for sirius black

How is he not dead? Well behind the veil, but I think that is sort of like a bridge to the afterlife and he is indeed dead in the hysical sense. But he lives on behind the veil and thorugh Harry and REmus

J.k has said that Harry and Sirius mirrors will come to play in the book so does this mean we will get to see Sirius again. She is always saying that Dumbledore is indeed dead but I have not read any where that she has said that Sirius is defiantly dead and I really do hope so it would be great if he came back. Yeah he was reckless and much of an idiot but Harry loved him and I think that is important.

I really liked seeing Sirius's room in the seventh book. It showed just how rebellious he was and loyal to his own beleifs and ideas which can be hard when your parents are so animite about something. When people would talk about Sirius's faults it gets me upset because I like to think of him as a good person and I don't like to see punches being thrown at him .

Sirius is a great man though I do think he should have been kinder to Kreacher. BUT SIRIUS ROCK!

That hole Kreacher back story was soo weird. I think that if Sirius had known the whole story he would have been kinder to Kreacher.

Hmmm...that's true....though still not perfectly kind since he hated any reminders of his old life.

Yeah, but if he knew he was trying to do good I think he would have forgiven Kreacher for having owners he didn't agree with..

yes, that's true as well...

If i was Harry, i would have just ended it then and there. He loved his godfather. His only piece of family left. I was devistated that he only knew him for 3 years after that. PADFOOT'S THE BOMB!!
